If you can get a piece of the old paint off the damaged wall, then take it to a paint store or maybe Wal-mart and they will be able to match it up with some new paint that matches.Most of the stores have computers that can match paints for you now.

Go to Lowes, Home Depot or any store that sells paint and get some of the paint swatches you think might match your walls...take them home and match it up with your walls. It sounds like you may need to repaint all the walls if you have a wall that is that badly damaged. Best of Luck!

Find an area on your wall that is hidden by a piece of furniture or a picture then take a razor knife and cut a one inch or so square. Peel the paper with the paint off of the sheetrock. take the square to sherwin williams and they have a computer that can match it exactly. While you are there you can get the items you need to repatch the square. you will need a spray can of oil based primer to spray the brown patch of paper from the square, let dry. Then you will need to spackle with a one inch putty knife, let dry then sand with 100grit sand paper.spray with primer and let dry 24 hrs. then put finish coat over it and your damaged wall and you are done. If you wall has water damage or repairs with mud or spackle make sure to spray them with the primer to keep them from bleeding through the finish paint. good luck:)
